Sidewalks are a must

The investment of creating a jogging and bicycle path for our community was a great idea. The predicament we now have is that in order to get to the path from many of our neighborhoods, you must walk in the street or through yards.

I think it would be beneficial to our community - through an assessment or possibly grant money - to make it mandatory for a homeowner to install sidewalks. I am amazed how many intersections have handicap-accessible ramps at the curbs that lead to no sidewalks. The accessibility of sidewalks in our neighborhoods would not only make our community more pedestrian friendly, if contracted locally it would create jobs.
